When Framingham Police asked Alexander Gonzalez if he had more than an ounce of marijuana in his car on Monday he admitted that was true..

"Gonzalez said he had a pound," police spokesman Lt. Ron Brandolini said on Tuesday.

Officers came upon an illegally parked car illegally on Interfaith Terrace with Gonzalez, 25, of Framingham, sitting behind the wheel.

The officers could smell fresh marijuana and asked him if he had more than an ounce of the drug. Less than an ounce is a civil offense. Brandolini said when Gonzalez said he had a pound, the officers took him out of the car and frisked him.

In his front, right pocket, officers found a bag of marijuana that contained about 1/3 of a pound. In a yogurt box in Gonzalez's car, they found about 7/10 of a pound. In a grocery bag in the car, the officers found another bag containing nearly another 1/3 of a pound, and in another bag in Gonzalez' pocket they found less than an ounce of marijuana, Brandolini said.

Police charged Gonzalez, of 21 Interfaith Terrace, with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and having drugs near a school or park.

Gonzalez pleaded not guilty on Tuesday at his Framingham District Court arraignment. He was released on $1,000 bail.
